ABBA Give me a WORD: Forgiveness-As We Do Not Forgive Those Who Trespass Against Us - Bishop Gregory
His Grace shares a story about Abba Sisoes:
"A brother, who was treated unjustly by some other one, came to
Abba Sisoes and told him:
“I was treated unjustly by a brother and I want to pay it back to him.”
His Grace shares a story about Abba Sisoes:
"A brother, who was treated unjustly by some other one, came to
Abba Sisoes and told him:
“I was treated unjustly by a brother and I want to pay it back to him.”
The elder was asking him to change his mind and was telling him:
“No, my child! Better leave the retribution to God.”
But the brother insisted:
“I will not calm down, until I take revenge.”
Then the elder suggested to him:
“Let’s pray, brother.”
So they got up and, as they were praying, the elder said:
“My God, we no longer have any need for you to care for us, because we are taking revenge on our own!”
As soon as the brother heard this, he fell at the elder’s feet and said:
“I am no longer opposing the brother, Abba, forgive me!”
